Hi all,
This is a bit of a weird one because of how System Transfer works, thought I would give it a shot anyway. I've got an EU 3DS and a JP 3DS and I'd like to System Transfer the EU system to the JP one. I don't care about the contents of the JP system (can back up saves through checkpoint etc.) but I do care a lot about the EU system, down to play data and Streetpass info etc. hence I thought System Transfer would be the best method for the job. Obviously that's a bit difficult with the two consoles being in different regions and I've been left a little stuck.

My question is - what options do I have to get the contents of the system to this JP console? I've heard that region changes can make you lose save data etc. and wonder if anybody has had experience doing a similar transfer. I don't care at all about the contents of the destination console but would love to maintain the data on the source console at all cost.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Generally, you can't, because system transfer won't work after a region change IIRC. Manual transfer using GodMode9 probably won't work between two different regions either, although you could try.

Interestingly, I was going to be asking this question soon about a US 3DS to JP N3DS. I haven't yet found an easy way to do it so I'll probably just start fresh and use custom install to get my CIAs on the new system and JKSV to transfer save data.

    Somethings maybe, but drives are rated in hours, so most likely many hours already on them. I just don't trust em for data. Maybe a used(renewed) car or something be ok tho.

    I mean almost every first party switch title of the past year or two leaked at least a week in advance for a while now haven't they?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not all of them, but yea many.
  • Quincy @ Quincy:
    Metroid prime 4 I wouldn't be surprised if that title will be a SwitchU title (here's hoping Nintendo won't go with such a ridiculous name again)
